Algebra.Com's Answer #70772 by stanbon(75887) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! f(x)=1/x-4x-5 find the domain of f(x) \n" ); document.write( "--------- \n" ); document.write( "Note: I'm guessing your denominator is x^2-4x-5 \n" ); document.write( "-------------- \n" ); document.write( "If that is true, the denominator must not be zero: \n" ); document.write( "x^2-4x-5=0 \n" ); document.write( "(x-5)(x+1)=0 \n" ); document.write( "x=5 or x=-1 \n" ); document.write( "These are the values of x that make the denominator zero \n" ); document.write( "so they are excluded from the Domain. \n" ); document.write( "-------- \n" ); document.write( "Domain is All Real Numbers except x= -1 and x=5. \n" ); document.write( "================= \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( " |
